1840-D Half Eagle, XF40
Scarce Small D Variety

1840-D $5 Small D XF40 PCGS. Variety 4-C. The 1840-D Small D half eagle is scarce. This is one of just nine pieces certified at PCGS, none of which are in Mint State. The coin is housed in a green label holder with the PCGS number that is now used exclusively for the Large D coins, but this piece is in fact the scarce Small D variety. The radial die crack that runs through the D is apparent. Rich orange-gold surfaces show mild wear with scattered field chatter that accompanies the grade. Dahlonega gold specialists will appreciate the importance of this offering. Population: 2 in 40, 4 finer (11/20).
